Jilted by Day, Cuddled At Night

In the Federal Empire, any woman who had reached twenty years of age must get married, or be randomly assigned a husband by the System. Thus, on her wedding day, the eve of her 20th birthday, Valerie Sullivan waited anxiously for her betrothed, Isaac Holt, to show up—only to find out that he was not coming after all! Trapped in this desperate situation, she grabbed the first handsome stranger she bumped into and got him to be her stand-in groom. It did not hurt that this mysterious Jonny was just her type—young and innocent-looking, with furry ears and a large fluffy tail. So, what if he seemed a little lost and confused? The wedding went on as planned, and Valerie was saved from public humiliation but only for the moment. After all, her marriage to Isaac was supposed to solidify the business partnership between the Sullivans and the Holts. In addition, her sister, Madeline, did not seem too happy that things turned out well for Valerie. Worst of all, Valerie found out that Jonny was an important, influential figure—Jonathan Gunn—the first commander of the Empire and uncle to the current monarch! Who had Valerie actually married—the sensitive, adorable Jonny, or the formidable, impassive Jonathan? Would this last-second pairing end in true love or divorce?

Chapter 515 His Fiancée

Lin Yu only then realized he had put the call on speaker and hastily murmured an acknowledgment into the brain-computer interface before cutting the connection.

Next to him, Alex teased, "Wow, you lovebirds can't get enough of each other, huh? Chasing all the way to the military department with a meal?"

Leaning against Alex, Luo Jina, with her fiery red hair set off by his green, looked even more striking as she said, "What's the matter, Alex, are you implying that our affection has faded because we've been married for too long?"

"No, not at all!"

The couple started to create a fuss again, one making a commotion and the other soothing.

Lin Yu looked at Su Wan with concern and then stepped outside.

Su Wan didn't notice his look. As for the voice that had broadcasted, she didn't think much of it. Lin Yu was among the few pure humans who were not inferior to Beastmen. It was quite normal for him to be liked, pursued, and married by girls.
